I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's still Matilda's birthday where Matilda is, right?

It is!

One year ago I left my wife and child at the hospital to go sleep in my own bed.

I woke up to find out they'd spent the night in the NICU. I spent the next day rocking Matilda in the NICU and singing a new lullaby just for her.

And then she was okay.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Cash, that's not a bad idea. What we have right now, is a layer of cheap 12" linoleum floor tiles, the kind with the peel-off backing over the adhesive, under the litter box. It's a pretty easy clean-up, but in a not-easy-to-reach space (sandwiched between the deep-freeze and the wall, and with a stack of stuff blocking easy access for humans but not for cats in front of it.

I think it is too early in my cycle for the excessive reaction to be PMS. Is there such a thing as pre-PMS?

Oh! It's Matilda day. Happy Matilda Day, everyone! That's a much happier thought. Mmmm. Mental images of pics of Matilda and Emmett together definitely make everything better.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

is it my imagination, or is there a lot of cool folks from other shows in Bionic Woman?

Two from BSG and, I think that was Badger from Firefly in prison.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Also from BSG. Heh.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

So I'm working away on my manuscript. A colonel is flattering his commanding officer a bit, talking about the utter success of their most recent action.

He called it "a glorious battle."

In my mind's eye, my characters instantly morphed from humans in the elegant officers' uniforms of 200 years ago, developing ridged foreheads and growing long, long hair. Their discreet glasses of claret disappeared, replaced with great goblets of blood wine. My colonel's concern that the general would give him a stern tongue-lashing upon learning he allowed an important enemy leader to slip through his fingers became shame and terror that his fearsome commander would declare him without honor and kill him where he stood.

So. Humans cannot fight glorious battles. The very phrase transforms them into Klingons.

Omnis, tell them you fixed the "problem" and then don't.
I'm tempted to. Except the last part of the new "Wireless internet policy" says violating the terms of it is grounds for immediate dismissal. Uggg.

Oh yes. I finished the Campaign and now I'm upping the difficulty level and going back around again.
O dear god! I played two hours before I was tired (started at 10pm). I got as far as blowing the ops center. dunno how deep that is. I'm guessing not too far. I didn't die ONCE (ok, except for the time I was digging for ammo in the crashed transport, and slipped out and drown... but that doesn't count).

Have we mentioned Pete's, er, obsessive nature when it comes to video games?
um. Ya think?! And, if I recall, works from home. So easily tempted to play all day. I can't complain, I had time to play a bit. If only I could lend some sleep to ND. I'm worried for him. I think when Halloween thing is up, he'll sleep for 3 days straight (except to feed the kitties when they nibble his nose).

Ha. This was just on the news: [link]

off to swap laundries on the roof. Two loads done, one to go. since this shit isn't in my apartment, shouldn't I be getting sex everyday? (my logic confounds even me sometimes).

Pretty much. Next stop on the train will be blood wine and commenting on what a lovely day to die it is.

The part was well written and played by a wonderful actor. Seeing a Joss-related actor doing well elsewhere always makes me very happy.

And I'm off to bed.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Seeing a Joss-related actor doing well elsewhere always makes me very happy.

And a reasonably nice human. Mark Sheppard came out unpaid to Flan B (as did others, let it be said). When asked why, his reply was, "Where else would I be?" That's certainly a vote for him as Good People in my book.
